Access :: Merge Fields?

Merge Fields

Apr 1, 2008

How can I merge 4 fields from 1 table into new field which will look like:

field1,firld2,field3,field4 ....

Hi,

I want to create an expression in a query, which is a combination of one or more fields in a table. e.g., Concatenate function in excel. Is there any such function in access. Please help me.

Thanks & Regards

How Can I Merge 2 Fields ?

Jan 4, 2008

I want to turn this set of fields returned from a query :-

'Stage'-'Engineer'-'BDE'
A-a-e
A-b
B-c-f
C-d

Into this result by merging the fields 'Engineer' and 'BDE' :-

'Stage'-'NewField'
A-a
A-e
A-b
B-c
B-f
C-d

Something like [Engineer]&[BDE] just joins up the text which isn't what I want.
A-ae
A-b
B-cf
C-d

I hope this makes sense.

Merge Fields Into One Field

Aug 14, 2005

I have a table and would like to merge all the fields into one text field of the table after the insert. I'm using adp (access/sql server).

When using standard sql the null values give a problem and i don't want to use the if clause as it will give too much coding.....

Hey guys,

I'm in need of some help again. I have two tables, Table1 and Table2. I have one field in each table that I want to have the same data. I don't want blanks to be merged, but I want all the data to be the same

for example

Table1
---------
1

3

5

Table2

Merge 2 Fields In A Report

Apr 19, 2005

Is there anyway that I can merge two fields together in a report? For example instead of having first name and surname as separate fields I want to put them together so that I don't have a big gap between them. The report is based on a query if that's any help!

Can I Merge 2 Txt Fields To 1 Memo Field

Apr 6, 2006

Hi,

I have an old database for generating service reports which has:
Report No
Date
Customer
Site

In separate fields which is fine

but also

wrk1
wrk2
wrk3
etc.

with a separate field for each printed line on the page
I would like to merge all these into one memo field while retaining the previous data which goes back 15 years (it came from a MSWorks 2.0 DOS db which is the reason for the weird structure I think)

Is there any way to write a macro or code to selectively merge some but not all fields in a table?

I've already copied the db and modified it after clearing all the old data, it works fine but I'd like to have access to the old data in the new format

TIA

Kim

Export To Excel And Merge Fields

Aug 5, 2005

Hello folks

I am developing a basic Fault Logging system so I have a main form that allows ref to be input, date fault raised, priority, etc... I also have a sub form running that allows notes to be input. There is no set limit on the number of notes that can be added as this needs to be flexible. A relationship is set up so that the Fault reference will be tagged to each of the notes. What I need is a query (I'm guessing that is the best way to do it) that will gather all of the standard fields fromthe main form and also all of the note fields (it will need to return null values in notes fields). Preferably I would like all of the notes fields to concatenate into one field with a line break between each note. The concatenation process would have to be flexible and dynamic as there is no predetermined limit to the number of notes that will have to be joined together.

I'm relatively new to Access and having searched the forums and tried a few ideas can't find anything that I can adapt to my situation. Any ideas/guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Mail Merge Using Access Database Fields?

Feb 28, 2006

I think the title describes best what I want to do. I need to send a letter to some lets say receivers, who fulfill certain criteria, and who appear in a data field in an access database. The letter is common for everyone with the difference of course of their address and name. I am sure this is an easy one for the most of you....

Thanx in advance, Kyriakos
p.s. sorry for misspelling some words...

Queries :: Merge Two Child Fields As String

Jan 14, 2014

I am currently creating a database for lift inspections. The output is a mail-merge report. What I am trying to do is get the multiple Lift Name (child) and Floors Served (child) combined into a string so that each Lift Group (parent) inspection has only one row. This then means that each lift group inspection will be shown as one record in mail merge.

Current

Lift Group ID - Date of Inspection - Lift Name - Floors Served
34 - 14/01/14 - Lift 1 - G-1
34 - 14/01/14 - Lift 2 - 1-3
35 - 14/01/14 - Lift 3 - G-8
34 - 14/01/13 - Lift 1 - G-1
34 - 10/10/13 - Lift 2 - 1-3

Desired:

Lift Group ID - Date of Inspection - Floors Served
34 - 14/01/14 - Lift 1 G-13; Lift 2 1-3
35 - 14/01/14 - Lift 3 G-8
34 - 10/10/13 - Lift 1 G-13; Lift 2 1-3

Reports :: Mail Merge - Multiple Value Fields

Jan 14, 2014

I am using mail merge to produce reports for lift inspections and it is all going well apart from the fields that are multi value do not quite transfer. For instance the "inspections completed" field has a list of the months Jan-Dec and therefore a visit may have been completed in Jan, Mar & Jul for example.In word the first two letter of the last month are transferred across followed by Chinese symbols.

Modules & VBA :: Find A Way To Merge Tables And Combine Fields That Have Same ID

Feb 27, 2014

We are a non-profit that does blind mailings for our membership drive.
The company who we buy names and addresses from sends us a delimited file that has these fields as the headings

" ID, FULLNAME,COMPANY, ADR1, ADR2, CITY, STATE, ZIP, FIPS"

Once they send out the mailings, people then send in back a remit slip with a contribution that gets scanned through a program that creates a file that gives us these titles

"ALT ID, AMOUNT PAID, RUN DATE, TENDER, FUND, PURPOSE, SOLICITATION, MEMBERSHIP QUESTION, MEMBER TYPE, CONSTITUENT TYPE, SEGMENT". The "ALT ID" and "ID" are the same in both tables.

I need to find a way to merge the tables and combine the fields that have the same ID # , and then have it create a csv file that reads like this (see below) for only the files of the people that responded so that I can import it into our membership software.

"Alt ID","Title","First Name","Middle Name","Last Name","Suffix","Address1","City","State","ZIP","ct y_code","Amount Paid","Run Date","Tender","Fund","Purpose","Solicitation","Me mbership Question","Member Type","Constituent Type","Segment"

Forms :: New Postal Address Fields And Mail Merge?

Jul 2, 2014

I do have another problem with my "Membership Monster" After designing the base with only registential Addess information in the data entry Form. I had to include fields for a separate postal address. This only applies to maybe 10 of 400 entries is there a simple clever way I can copy this data over to the new postal detail fields from the Residential detail feilds ? I thought it may be possible to set thee residential fields as source data. But I am unsure if it is then possible to enter different data over the top if the postal address is different.

I also then need to be able to mail merge the postal details of current members so as print out address labels for the magazine.

Queries :: Creating A Query That Will Merge Various Fields Into One Field

Jun 9, 2015

way to merge various fields from a table into just one using a query.The purpose will be for easier copying and pasting in to an email.So we have a table to stores information such as Site Contact, Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, Postcode etc.

I want to be able to run a query that will put the address in to just one box, either in the query or on a report then it's much easier to just highlight the full address and copy and paste it into an email. Rather than copying each field individually.

General :: Merge Two Fields From Two Databases That Have Matching Two Data Ranges

Mar 25, 2014

I have two databases (files). Each file has a format like the one below.

File 1:
chr start end
chr1 1000 2000
chr2 3000 4000

File 2:
chr start end
chr1 1500 3000
chr2 3750 4000

I want to be able to merge the two records together if the field chr matches between the two files plus if there is an overlap between the start number and end number from each file. For instance the first record from each file would match because the range from 1000 to 2000 of file 1 has numbers consisting of 500 numbers (1500-2000) that are also present and overlap in file 2 (1500-3000). I possibly cannot use < or > since the ranges from each file will vary to different degrees. Perhaps there is a between function that might work...

Insert Specific Fields Into Mail Merge To Refine Terms?

Nov 19, 2013

I'm working on a Word mail merge feature that links to an Access Database and would like to know if you can insert specific fields into the mail merge to refine the terms? example below:

<<Customer Name, [field 2]>> - Or something to that effect.

^The mail merge would know where to obtain the customer name from anyway, but will it select information from the field that is being referenced?

"Merge" To Text Fields In Query.

Nov 9, 2006

Hi,

I am trying to "merge" to textfields in a query.
One field is [domene], the other has the name [VLini].

I need these fields to end up like this: DOMAIN/VLINI
I am trying to make a security check with AUTH_USER from the domain user, but it also requires the domain name. Since there are users from multiple domains I need to merge these two in to one field called username.

I have tried:

username: [domene]"/"[VLini] but this only produces a "-1" answer.

Anyone?

Mail Merge

Dec 28, 2005

I am totally new to Access and this is my first database.

I have a database for volunteers in which table A is basically a calendar and table B a list of volunteers with their details.

What I want to do is construct a report that will allow me to produce a mail merge letter such that:

1. One volunteer, with his/her information, is selected from table B and inserted into a mail merge letter. (The volunteer selected will change from letter to letter).

2 Certain days are selected from table A and added to the mail merge letter. This information will be the same in all letter.

I have posted a separate thread asking how I can make the selection of days in (2) above so you can assume that I know how to make the selection within table B.

How do I proceed?

If anyone knows a good example of this type of report then i will be extremely grateful.

Merge Info

Jan 17, 2006

I have 3 tables: tbl_1, tbl_2, tbl_3
All 3 have the same 3 columns: name, email, code

Can I write some queries or a code or something that can create one "tbl_MASTER" with the same 3 columns?

Ex:
tbl_1 - 3 records
tbl_2 - 7 records
tbl_3 - 21 records

tbl_MASTER - 31 records. Now the information in the other 3 tables changes everyday so I want it to all be automatic, I dont want to execute 3 different queries or anything like that. Is this doable. Thanks.

Mail Merge

Apr 12, 2006

Hi, i have set up a mail merge between a query and a word document. My system is a system that processes transactions from an online cd shop. I have made it so that each cd that is bought by each customer is a different transaction in a transaction table, and each transaction is given an order number to group them. How do i get the mail merge to show all the transactions in an order on the invoice in my word doc because at the moment, even if i add two of the title name fields, they both show the same transaction.

Word Merge..

Apr 27, 2006

Im having a problem getting this code to work.
It is meant to fire up Word (which it does), open up a new doc based on the template (which it also does) and then populate a field in the doc with data from the query table (which it doesn't).

I've put the fields in the Word doc via firstly, defining them as Custom Document Properties in the File, Properties box, and then as "{ DOCPROPERTY "<fieldname>" *MERGEFORMAT }" codes in the text.

The field in the Word doc is type 'text' and the field in Access is type 'text', so I am stumped by the "Type Mismatch" error it gives when attempting to get/open the recordset.
It hasnt even got to transferring the values across to the doc.?

Ive not done this before (Access newbie) and even found creating the custom fields in Word not as straighforward as I expected!

Please can someone help?

Private Sub butDocPreview_Click()

Dim dbs As Database
Dim objDocs As Object
Dim objWord As Object
Dim prps As Object
Dim rst As Recordset
Dim strClient As String
Dim strAccountManager As String

On Error Resume Next
Set objWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
If Err.Number = 429 Then
'Word is not running; creating a Word object
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Err.Clear
End If

On Error GoTo cmdWord_ClickError
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
'Open query..
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryClientDocHdr_Export"
intCount = DCount("*", "tmpClientDocHdr")
Debug.Print "Number of Text items: " & intCount
' Check that there is at least one line..
If intCount < 1 Then
MsgBox "No text to process; cancelling"
Exit Sub
End If

Set dbs = CurrentDb
'==stops here with "Type Mismatch" error==
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tmpClientDocHdr", dbOpenDynaset)
With rst
strClient = Nz(![Client])
strAccountManager = Nz(![AccountManager])
End With
rst.Close
...
...
